Do you count your veggies and fruit?

I log everything that goes in my mouth

Absolutely. I get through plenty of bananas, apples, and raspberries on a daily basis. I reckon around 300cals per day on fruit. As for veggies - probably around 500cals a day on zucchini, broccoli, savoy cabbage, beetroot, cauliflower, and so on. Big veggie fan and don't really care for staples such as rice and pasta.

Yes. Today my snack (blueberries & raspberries) and the courgette with dinner add to ~130cals (depending on the weight of the courgette later). That's not a lot, but that's also not a high veggie day (about average for my fruit). They are pretty low calorie for volume but they could still add up and quickly and I like to have a more accurate number every day.

I think the only veggie I don't log are leafy greens. Sometimes I do, but not all the time. I certainly never weigh it.

Hey, I count everything that goes into my mouth, even gum and mints

Ok, maybe a ton was not the correct word lol. I meant you can eat a good amount all day and lose weight, but I just was not sure if you really have to log them in seeing as though they help with weight loss. True on the avocado and bananas. I guess I just meant really low cal veg/fruit...

Zucchini is a low calorie vegie. On Tuesday I ate 800g of it in dinner.... If it didn't get logged that's a whole lot of missing calories.

I log everything.... The majority of my carb intake is vegies (and mostly low cal ones) and some fruit. I would definitely not lose weight if I was given free reign on vegetables!

Of course I log my fruit and veg!

Bananas are about 100 cal
Apples are maybe 80 cal
Mangos are up around 130 cal

If you're on a 1300 calorie diet ... those pieces of fruit start to add up!
